Happy Halloween! Gannon was Captain Hook this year...he liked the idea of Captain Hook because Hook has a hook AND a sword - cool! Gannon's or Hook's assistant was Pirate Savion. And we trick-or-treated with his buddies Owen and Luke. We had a great evening...and we have a great neighborhood for trick-or-treating. A fun evening was had by all!!!
Gannon, Papa and I headed to NAPS early Halloween morning to celebrate Halloween. NAPS has a Halloween Pajama Party for the kids - it is a blast for them. I just love that school and all of the staff! Papa and I were in charge of the fishing booth at the party and boy was that work!
This one's for you Leah and Casey!!!
For the past two years, I have had the remarkable opportunity to sit on the Pink October Fashion Show committee and assist in the production of the spectacular show. I am the privileged individual that is allowed to work closely with the models (all breast cancer survivors) and teach them choreography for the show and how to walk to "model" walk.
Richard and I spent the beautiful autumn day with our favorite little guy in one of our favorite places - Bishop's. (For those of you that don't know...Richard proposed to me at Bishop's in the middle of the pumpkin farm! So needless to say, the place is especially sweet to me. When we lived in San Diego, we would travel home every October just to visit the pumpkin farm. I longed for every aspect of it while living by the ocean. I swear that Bishop's is one of the reasons I chose to move back home:-) I have so many great memories there and I hope to create some wonderful memories there for Gannon too.)
Daddy and Gannon worked all weekend long on preparing baby girl's room. We have decided to convert the guest room into the princess headquarters, so that meant...clearing out the room (now it's time for a garage sale), priming the walls for the paint, painting the walls pink of course and adding new baseboards and crown molding - all fit for a princess. Many of you have asked, so how are you decorating her room?...the answer, over the top in PINK! I'll post more photos of the completed room once it is getting closer to completion.
This morning, the entire family woke early and walked for a cure! We participated in the annual 5K Walk/Run, sponsored by the Pink October committee, to find a cure for breast cancer. We participate in this walk every year...and this year, the weather was perfect and we had so much fun! It is important to Rich and I that Gannon understands the importance of participating in community events, while giving to charities.
Gannon didn't have school today - so he got a bonus Papa day! Papa took G to John and Marge's home to visit the baby alpaca's. Gannon just loves visiting the alpaca's and playing in the dirt.
